Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Spelter, WV.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Spelter provides medically managed detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
